Breakthrough Public Schools

Breakthrough Public Schools Breakthrough Public Schools is the highest-rated network of free, nonprofit public charter schools.

In 2010, three of the top-performing public schools in Cleveland joined together to launch Breakthrough Schools, a network of like-minded K-8 schools working together to make sure every child in Cleveland has access to at least one high-quality public school. So far, Breakthrough Schools has opened 8 new schools in Glenville, Hough, University Circle, St Clair - Superior, Collinwood, Lee Harvard,

Union Miles, and Cudell. Breakthrough Schools is a 100% nonprofit network of schools, recently ranked #11 nationally and #1 in Ohio by CREDO at Stanford University.

A gym. A community hub. A polling site.

Breakthrough Woodland Hills' new gym and multipurpose facility is so much more than four walls — and this video shows exactly what that looks like in action.

We premiered it at Breakthrough BASH, hosted by Friends of Breakthrough, and now we're sharing it with all of you. This is what support makes possible. 💜

Last week, we celebrated a huge milestone—our Class of 2026 8th graders promoted to high school! 🎉

We’re so proud of all they’ve accomplished and even more excited for what’s ahead. With support from the High School Placement team at Beyond Breakthrough, our scholars are heading to 46 high schools across the Cleveland area—including selective and non-selective schools, CMSD, community schools, public and private options, and all-boys, all-girls, and coed environments.

Even more incredible: they’ve secured $200,000 in scholarships for the 2026–27 school year through the Howley and Sullivan Scholarships.

The future is bright, and their journey is just beginning. 💫

What a year it’s been! 🎉

From the first day of school to the last, our scholars have grown, learned, and achieved so much—and it wouldn’t have been possible without our amazing families.

Take a moment to celebrate it all with our Year-End Wrapped video. It’s a joyful look back at the moments, milestones, and memories that made this year so special.

We hope it makes you proud—because there is so much to celebrate. Watch now!
